Tiger Nutrition: High Performance Fueling for Competitive Athletes Hydration for Athletes Minimizing dehydration is the simplest, yet most effective step athletes can take to protect both health and performance. Hydration status is a critical determinant of the athlete’s physiological capacity to train, compete, and recover successfully. Athletes who fail to replace body fluids lost through sweat typically experience many adverse functional changes.
Effects of Dehydration on Performance
In an effort to stay cool, several physiological adaptations occur that lead to fatigue and reduced exercise performance, especially in the heat. The rate of fluid absorption by the intestines slows down making it harder to reverse fluid deficits. Slower absorption rates can lead to bloating and upset stomach when athletes attempt to replenish fluids. Reductions in blood flow to the skin and increased core body temperature place athletes at greater risk for heat exhaustion and heat stroke.
Water or Sports Drinks? Plain water alone is an effective drink for fluid replacement in low intensity and short duration sports. However, if carbohydrate and electrolytes are added to water, as in a sports drink, performance can be enhanced, especially in high intensity and endurance sports. The advantage of sports drinks:
Promote better performance because it provides carbohydrates to fuel your muscles and your brain. Athletes improve consumption when their hydration beverage is flavored, as is the case with a sports drink. Sodium in fluid: Improves hydration by stimulating thirst. Promotes both carbohydrate and water uptake in the intestines equaling more efficient delivery of fuel to muscles and reduced urine volume post-exercise, i.e. more fluid is retained by the body and more fuel is sent to the muscle. Palatability, better absorption by the body, and sodium content all equate to more effective hydration during exercise, and re-hydration following exercise.
TAKE THE NECESSARY STEPS TO AVOID FATIGUE AND DEHYDRATION! 1. Hydrate throughout the day and consume 24-32 oz of fluids 2-3 hours prior to exercise or competition. 2. Carry your own sports bottle, plant fluids on your running route, use a fuel belt and use breaks wisely: Most athletes can easily consume about 5 fl oz (150 ml) during a quick break; each gulp is about 1 fl oz (30 ml). 3. Monitor the effectiveness of your hydration plan. Many athletes fall far short of meeting their hydration needs during exercise: Weigh yourself before and after practices or competitions in the same dry clothing. The goal is to stay well hydrated and avoid dehydration. This means a maximum weight loss of 2% of your body weight during exercise. If your weight loss is greater than 2%, make a conscious effort to take in more fluids during exercise.
Key Point→ If weight loss is greater than 2-3% of starting weight; the athlete either started practice under-hydrated, or did not hydrate enough during practice, or both. Make an appointment to see the Sports RD for an in-depth hydration and sweat rate assessment.
When to Choose a Sports Drink Use them before, during and after exercise when you need additional fuel and fluids. Do not use them in-between meals, or at meals, when more nutritious beverages are available. 1 serving = 8 oz Calories Carbohydrate (g) Protein (g) Fat (g) Calcium (mg) Sodium (mg) Potassium (mg) Vitamin A (IU) Vitamin C (mg) Vitamin D (IU) Antioxidants

The exact cause of muscle cramps remains unknown; however, dehydration and inadequate replacement of sodium lost in sweat do appear to play a role. Sports drinks are formulated with just enough sodium to increase thirst and promote fluid absorption and this amount is generally not enough to replace sodium losses for some athletes. Sodium loss is highly individual, ranging from 460–1840mg/L of sweat. This can be further influenced by numerous other factors including genetics, fitness, acclimatization, and weather conditions. Sodium losses in sweat must be replaced by consuming foods and fluids that contain sodium. If you suffer from frequent cramps, have your intake and hydration program assessed by the sports dietitian and athletic trainer.
Over-hydration Drinking more fluids than necessary can be unsafe. In cool weather, or when the exercise intensity is low, the rate of sweat loss can be very low. It is unnecessary and potentially dangerous to drink at rates greater than sweat losses. Over-hydrating, particularly with plain water, can cause a dilution of blood sodium levels (hyponatraemia). Symptoms include headaches, disorientation, coma, and in severe cases, death. More is not always better!
Top 10 Highlights 1. Know your sweat rate and develop a hydration plan. 2. Aim to have minimal weight loss during exercise. 3. Practice with fluid timing before competition day. You can improve gastro-intestinal tolerance over time. 4. Do not drink at a rate that exceeds sweat losses. 5. Be aware of greater fluid losses in hot and humid environments. 6. Alcohol interferes with re-hydration and other recovery processes. 7. Tea, 100% juices, soups, milk and even fruits and vegetables contribute to hydration. 8. Energy drinks are not ideal choices for replenishing fluids or providing muscles with fuel. 9. Water is an excellent fluid for low intensity and short duration activities. 10. Sports drinks are suited to high intensity and endurance sports or when exercising in the heat.

Tiger Nutrition: High Performance Fueling for Competitive Athletes Nutrient Timing for Optimizing Performance
By paying attention to meal timing, athletes can maximize their athletic potential in several important ways: • • • •
Reduced time to onset of fatigue which maximizes ability to work longer. Muscle tissue repair and protein synthesis (muscle building) after exercise. Reduced muscular soreness after exercise. Replenishment of fuel stores for use at the next bout of training or event.
This technical fact sheet has been developed as a summary of the evidence* on nutrient timing. Refer to the other fact sheets in the series for practical meal planning suggestions. BEFORE EXERCISE
DURING EXERCISE
AFTER EXERCISE
Pre-exercise meals should be individualized based on the athlete’s size, their particular sport, and personal preferences. Optimal timing is not always practical, based on scheduling demands or intestinal tolerance levels, but exercising or competing in the fasted state is less than ideal. Athletes should experiment with foods and timing well in advance of competition to find what works.
Intake requirements during exercise and competition vary by sport and position. Providing fuel to working muscles is critical for extending work capacity and maintaining adequate hydration.
Optimal post-exercise recovery occurs in the 4-6 hours following every bout of exercise. In the first 30 minutes after completion, the most rapid glycogen (stored carbohydrate) resynthesis occurs making this a critical window of opportunity for optimizing recovery.
Fluids: 2-3 hours before exercise consume 12-20 ounces of water or a sports drink. This will optimize hydration and allow time for excretion of excess fluids before exercise. Food: 3-4 hours pre-event: Consume .5 – 1.0 grams of carbohydrate and .07 - .10 grams of protein per pound of body weight before exercise or competition. 1 hour or less prior to exercise: Plan to top-off glucose levels by having a small snack. If whole foods are well tolerated, choose low- fiber, low-fat foods such as fruit and granola bars. If not, choose a sports drink.
General Rule→ Choose a well-balanced pre-event meal comprised of low-fat, nutrient rich foods. Include lean proteins and ample carbohydrates such as skim dairy, fruits, vegetables, starches and grains. Then, have a small snack right before activity begins.
Fluids: Losses will vary by sport, the environment and the individual athlete’s sweat rate. Athletes should anticipate these losses and replenish accordingly.
Fluids: Consume salty snacks and foods along with a sports drink or water to help replenish lost sodium and promote complete rehydration.
General Rule→ Consume 8 oz of a sports drink every 15 minutes.
General Rule → Consume 2-3 cups of fluids for every pound lost during exercise.
Food: Events lasting less than 1 hour: Typically, sports lasting less than an hour do not threaten body fuel stores. Good preparation (i.e. a consistent and nutritious training diet) should see you well fuelled for at least an hour of sustained or intermittent high-intensity activity. Fluid replacement is considered the main nutritional need. Events lasting greater than 1 hour: Consuming 30-60 grams of carbohydrate per hour has been shown to improve endurance performance. This applies to stop and go sports like hockey, soccer and football, as well as endurance sports.
General Rule → Fuel early and fuel
Food: Immediately after exercise: 10-20 grams of protein with .5 -.7 grams of carbohydrate per pound body weight. Two-six hours after exercise: Repeated feedings after exercise may help provide a pulsing effect for muscle re-building over time. Consume .5 -.7 grams of carbohydrate per pound body weight in a well-balanced meal approximately 1-2 hours after exercise or competition.
General Rule → Have a snack right after exercise, then shower, change and head to your regular meal. Follow that up with a nutritious night-time snack.

Three Key Principles of Sports Nutrition The three most important principles of a sports nutrition game plan are to stay well-hydrated, to provide fuel for
your muscles, and to provide optimal recovery after training and competition. Consistently feeding your body with the right fuel at the right time increases your muscle energy stores, repairs and builds muscle tissue, and maximizes training and conditioning which results in peak performance.
Not Just Game Day Athletes should eat something every 3-4 hours on most days, especially leading up to key events. Making changes in size and body composition comes from making changes in food choices and portions and total intake should be adjusted to match seasonal changes in activity level. Fueling frequency however, should not change if peak performance is your priority. Because your body relies on consistent fuel for peak performance, eating at similar meal times throughout the day helps keep you stocked with the carbohydrates (energy for workouts), protein (needed to repair and build tissue), and fat (important to enhance endurance, healing, and recovery) you need. Whether you prepare food in your room, eat in your dining hall or club, or eat at a local restaurant, planning your eating routine ahead of time is important.
Highlights
Coordinate snacks and meals with your class and training schedule so you are eating something every 3-4 hours. Morning:
Before Ex: After Ex: Evening: PM Snack:
All day:
Eat breakfast every day and avoid “back-loading.” Too many athletes consume a large portion of their daily needs after practice. This hinders performance due to low energy availability for working muscles. Don’t waste time in the gym or increase risk for injury by arriving under-fueled. Eat a snack before and after practices and lifts. The pre-lift snack should include protein and carbohydrate. Eat a small recovery snack consisting of 10-20 g protein with 30-50 grams carbohydrate. Choose a well balanced meal with ample carbohydrates and lean proteins with a mix of nutritious added fats. Use the 80/20 rule: 80% of the time, choose high quality foods- 20% of the time, include fun foods. 3 hours after dinner, choose a nutritious night-time snack to complete the day. Eating at night is perfectly acceptable unless you are surpassing your needs for the entire day. See the Sports RD if you need help balancing eating during late night study breaks or social events. Hydrate before, during and after every bout of exercise. Base needs on individual sweat rate.

Tiger Nutrition: High Performance Fueling for Competitive Athletes Gaining Weight and Increasing Muscle Mass
There are 3 main behaviors required for increasing muscle mass. It’s not complicated, but it takes time and attention. Don’t skip the basics. 1. EAT ENOUGH. If you are not gaining weight in spite of hard work and plenty of rest, there is either something wrong, or you are just not eating enough. Increase your daily calories. Get help if you need it. See the Sports Dietitian. 2. EAT BEFORE AND AFTER EVERY LIFT. There are no excuses for arriving to lift on an empty stomach. If you don’t provide your muscles with fuel for work hard, it’s like not showing up at all. 3. EAT A PROTEIN RICH SNACK BEFORE BED. Recovery happens when resting. Hormone status during sleep is ideal for repairing and building muscle. Sugary cereals, pizza, and junk food, don’t count. They are allowed on occasion, but what you really need is a turkey sandwich, Greek yogurt or cottage cheese, or a whey protein smoothie.
Helpful Tips
1. Increase daily energy intake by increasing frequency of eating and making use of energy-rich drinks and snacks like trail mix, added fats such as nuts, seeds, and avocado, sushi, and home-made smoothies. 2. Don’t fill up on low nutrition or zero calorie beverages. Save room for more energy dense foods. 3. Plan ahead! Plan food and fluids throughout the day to make sure suitable choices are always available. 4. Eat breakfast, lunch and dinner! (Each plate: 2/3 quality carbs, 1/3 quality protein, plant fats) 5. Eat something before and after lift! 6. Eat a night-time snack that is protein rich! 7. Only after training and diet have been optimized should you consider a sports supplement. Your sports dietitian can help in determining the best supplement for you. 8. Set realistic goals and monitor progress regularly. To see how effective your training program is, assess your body mass and composition. Make an appointment with the Sports RD or your Strength Coach to do this. 9. Commitment, perseverance, and consistency are essential. Developing optimal levels of strength and muscle mass for your sport may take years, especially if you don’t have the luxury of a prolonged offseason each year. 10. Schedule an appointment with the Sports RD for off-season support. Call McCosh at 258-5357.

Tiger Nutrition: High Performance Fueling for Competitive Athletes Recovery Nutrition for Optimizing Performance
Recovery nutrition is essential for athletes who train at a high level each week. Athletes who train multiple times per day, participate in tournament play, have very long seasons or compete in back-to-back events can quickly deplete energy stores leaving them fatigued and unable to perform at their best. Consistent recovery habits that include adequate rest, optimal fuel, and thorough re-hydration can make the difference between good performances and game-winning performances.
Recovery nutrition is critical for several reasons: • • • •
It provides accelerated nutrient replacement due to increased blood flow to the muscle. It begins the process of repairing and reducing muscle breakdown after workouts. It replenishes fuels stores for use at the next bout of training or competition. It rehydrates the body by replacing fluids and electrolytes lost in sweat.
Key Point→ The ultimate goal of post-exercise refueling is to help athlete’s fully recover and prepare for the next practice or competition. Prolonging post-exercise refueling delays the recovery process. Don’t wait to eat.
Rapid Recovery: The First 30 Nutrient Fluids
The Facts
The Action Steps
Example
As little as a 2% weight loss may impair aerobic exercise performance, increase perceived exertion, impair mental performance, alter immune response, and decrease balance control.
Consume adequate fluids during exercise to minimize losses. Consume 16-24 oz of a sports drink per pound lost after exercise.
Drink 24 oz of Gatorade or Powerade per pound lost immediately after exercise. Water and salty snacks or foods at the subsequent meal will continue the rehydration process while replenishing sodium losses. For quick recovery fuel, choose foods or fluids that provide both carbohydrate and protein. Slightly more refined carbohydrates are ideal for recovery. For quick recovery fuel, choose foods or fluids that provide both carbohydrate and protein. Low-fat dairy and lean protein choices from whole foods are excellent choices.
Carbohydrate Delaying carbohydrate ingestion by as little
Protein
as 2 hours can reduce the rate of glycogen resynthesis by 50%, meaning you will have less stored carbohydrate for later use. During this phase, high glycemic carbohydrates further enhance glycogen synthesis. Adding protein to carbohydrate at approximately a ratio of 1:3 (PRO: CHO) has been shown to stimulate glycogen resynthesis to a greater extent. Additionally, post-exercise consumption of dietary protein stimulates muscle protein synthesis.
Eat 50 + grams of carbohydrate immediately after exercise. This is a general guideline, individualize based on body size. Eat 10-20 grams of protein with carbohydrate immediately after exercise. 20 grams is the maximum amount needed to initiate muscle repair at this stage regardless of body size.
Sustained Recovery: The Next 2-4 Hours Repeated feedings after exercise may help provide a pulsing effect for muscle re-building over time. The more intense the conditioning and the longer the practice or event, the more you will need. Meals and snacks can meet this need. Timing after workout Within 30 minutes AND 2 hours post-workout (meal) AND 4 hours post-workout (snack)
Grams of Carbohydrate 50 grams + 50 grams + 50 grams +
Grams of Protein 15 grams + 15 grams + 15 grams
Recovery on Campus
Choose whole, minimally processed foods as often as possible. Keep a refrigerator and microwave in your room to make healthy snacks available at any time. The U-Store, the C-Store and the Frist Gallery all carry a wide variety of healthy options. Trader Joe’s and Wegmans grocery stores are also an easy shuttle ride away and carry an abundance of high quality fuel choices. Choose well-balanced food combinations that provide carbohydrate, protein and fat. These examples provide approximately 50 grams of carbohydrate and 10-20 grams of protein.

Key Point→ There are situations where athletes do not need to practice the complete recovery steps outlined here. For example, a meal or a snack following activity in precision or low intensity sports may be sufficient. All athletes should maintain adequate hydration status regardless of sport and for athletes participating in intense lifting programs, pre-and post lift nutrition remains critical. Those who may not need to practice intense recovery are: •
• •
Athletes who are reducing their training volume in preparation for competition (tapering). Athletes who are tapering should maintain sufficient daily intake and this will provide a loading effect which is especially beneficial for endurance athletes. For more help with this, see the sports RD. Athletes who exercise for 60 minutes or less on most days- a meal or a snack following the training session is adequate. Athletes in the off-season who have significantly decreased the frequency and intensity of training and conditioning.

Tiger Nutrition: High Performance Fueling for Competitive Athletes
Maintaining or Losing Weight and Improving Body Composition Improving your body composition profile while maintaining weight, or losing weight, requires consistency and effort over time. Improvements are likely to appear more gradually and require hard work and patience. If you pay attention to what you are eating, and work hard in the weight room, you will see a difference! 1. EAT ENOUGH. Even if you are trying to lose weight or hang onto weight, it is important that you eat enough. Under-eating to lose weight is a common pitfall for many hard-working athletes. Modest reductions are ideal and spare lean muscle loss. It still takes fuel to work hard. 2. FRQUENT EATING IS MANDATORY! Eating frequently provides a metabolic benefit to those who need to lose weight, and ensures a constant supply of nutrients to hard working muscle. It ensures you have eaten something before and after every lift, and that you have a night-time snack. 6 eating opportunities per day minimum.
3. EAT SUPER CLEAN AND INCLUDE A PROTEIN SOURCE AT EVERY MEAL AND SNACK. There is little room for candy, pizza, fried foods, and alcohol when attempting to reduce body fat. Focus on whole grains, PLENTY of vegetables, fresh fruit, and skim dairy. Choose lean protein sources at every meal; digesting protein uses more calories offering another metabolic boost and helps athletes feel satisfied and full among other things.
Helpful Tips
1. Plan ahead! Make sure suitable choices are always available. Take sandwiches, fruit, and hard-boiled eggs to go for example. Have Greek yogurt and cottage cheese in a frig in your room. 2. Eat breakfast, lunch and dinner! (Each plate: 2/3 quality carbs, 1/3 quality protein, plant fats) 3. Eat something before and after lift! There are no excuses for not doing this! 4. Eat a night-time snack that is protein rich! Recovery happens when resting. Hormone status during sleep is ideal for repairing and building muscle.
5. Only after training and diet have been optimized should you consider a sports supplement. Your sports dietitian can help in determining the best supplement for you. 6. Set realistic goals and monitor progress regularly. Believe it or not, there is such a thing as too low of body fat. Assess your baseline body mass and composition and discuss goals with your Sports RD or Strength Coach. 7. Commitment, perseverance, and consistency are essential. Developing optimal levels of strength and muscle mass for your sport may take years, especially if you don’t have the luxury of a prolonged offseason each year. 8. Schedule an appointment with the Sports RD for off-season support. Call McCosh at 258-5357.
